This one has a special place in my heart......

That's not a defensive play, though.  That's a special teams play.

Yes it was. The lights at Foxboro went out right as we started driving down by 1 score.

The way the sentence was written I thought they were talking about the 49ers game. You're.....right. I'm gonna go die now. 

Please dont die, it was a simple misreading. Plus it was 25 years ago, some of these kids were in diapers back then.

Here's a candidate for biggest defensive play in team history.   In 1996, we were 8-7, and only needed to beat the 3-12 Falcons to go to the playoffs for the first time.  We led comfortably at the half, but in the second half the Falcons chipped away until we were hanging on 19-17 late in the game.  They had the ball, and they had been throwing a wide receiver screen all the second half and it had been giving us fits.  Time was running out.  They started driving down the field.  We couldn't stop them.  Then from about our 48 yard line, they threw that same WR screen and the WR broke out and was going for the winning TD to knock us out of the playoffs, but somehow, star DE Tony Brackens, in one of the all out hustle plays in team history, ran the guy down and tackled him at about the 26 yard line.  Of course, then Morton Andersen missed that FG and we went to the playoffs.

But without Tony Brackens running all the way downfield and catching that WR from behind, the Falcons would have scored a TD and we would not have gone to the playoffs.  

That is one of the most important, most forgotten defensive plays in team history.   Probably the most important defensive play in team history.

Go to the 1:54:19 mark in the video and you can see it.

Go to the end of the game was hear that stadium explode.  Unbelievable.  What a great memory.  I was there.

But, again, the play I am pointing to is where Tony Brackens caught the Falcons' WR from behind and prevented a game-winning TD.

Look at all the people in that stadium. It's almost like ancient history.

I know, but it's my favorite Jags play of all time. I just like reminding the younger fans of the good ol' days!

I doubt that he leaves unless he's "hell bent" on getting out of Jacksonville.  I'm thinking he either gets a new contract or tagged.

Please dont die, it was a simple misreading. Plus it was 25 years ago, some of these kids were in diapers back then.

I meant I was going to die for saying "you're right".

Tough one for ya, aye? I'm sorry for that.

The Simmons interception tied the game at 7.  How did it look like we were 'going to get thumped' before that?  The game was neck and neck the whole way.  Means 175.

Your right. It was a 7-0 score and Simmons made the interception and made it 7-7.

The Bills scored on the very next drive to make it 14-7.

Another key play that Simmons made, which effected the game was a blocked extra point up in Denver the very next week. We were down 2 scores when he made that play if I can remember. I was 14 years old and now I’m 37 so my memory could be off. 

Actually now that I think about it, Simmons May have blocked the first xp, then Denver tried for a 2 pt conversation and didn’t convert which made it 12-0 and we won 30-27. I don’t feel like looking it up.

I also said Means rushed for 186 but it was actually 175.

Fournette reminds me of a little bit of Natrone Means.

Any of the Rashean Mathis' interceptions against Ben Roethlisberger.

My favorite one was the one he had during the night game here to seal the game. The stadium was absolutely bonkers.

Hands down Myles Jack

Rashean has Ben’s number. Remember his hair was out of bounds?

Another great defensive play that is long forgotten was back in the 90s when Massey made a tackle on 4th down against the Giants. 

The Jags stuffed them on 4 straight plays down on the goal line.
